Managing templates #
Go to RCS > RCS Templates and select a bot to load its templates. You can search by name, ID or content (at least 3 characters), filter by status, sort by last updated, name or created date, and switch between grid and list views.
Actions on each template:
- View / Info: see the template’s content, bot and type.
- Test: send the template to a phone number to see it on a real device.
- Edit: change the template.
- Clone: create a copy to use as a starting point for a similar template.
- Copy Message Template in JSON: copy the template structure, which is useful for developers.
- Delete: permanently remove the template.
Sync templates #
Click Sync templates and choose a bot to refresh template statuses from the RCS network. Do this if a template’s approval status looks out of date.
